The loophole is "compelling interest". The gov't can probably show a
compelling interest in restricting religious murders. But can they
show a compelling interest why members of The Church Of The Totally
Naked Christ shouldn't walk around nude; or why ET cultists shouldn't
paint UFO attraction symbols on public roadways; or why evangelical
firms shouldn't spam all Net.users with religious product ads; or why
the US flag shouldn't be burnt in holy rituals?
